Heart 3D: echocardiographic and anatomical features of the tricuspid valve in a heterogeneous population with severe regurgitation—implications for edge-to-edge procedure suitability
In this observational study, real-time 3D TEE proved feasible for assessing tricuspid valve anatomy and visualization quality in patients with severe TR who were considered for TEER. Compared with 2D TEE, 3D TEE offered an improved visualization of the posterior leaflet and provided adequate image quality for procedural planning in most patients. Moreover, a statistically significant advantage was observed for 3D TEE over 2D TEE in providing image quality sufficient for a detailed morphological evaluation.
